If u want ur oc to die, then tell me and how they r going to die. Remember that a $ means that you can play music to make a battle more interesting, and a # is used when the fight finishes. There you go. Read on peepz!
The four girls had met up in the not so empty lunch hall at break. Aya had now become a new member of there little gang which is why she hung out with them today. Nickial was sat in a window sill across from them alone as usual.
"I don't see why you want him to help us anyway Lan. He's a right sourpuss." Nesira said miserably.
Lanny sighed and looked over at Nickial. He seemed to growl whenever someone went near him.
"Looks like a lovely chap to me." Naiden said sarcastically.
"And the sky is pink." Nesira muttered with the same sarcastic tone.
"Aah! The apocalypse has begun!" Naiden pretended to faint.
Lanny smirked. Anything girly was like poison to Naiden. You'd never see her wearing pink or make-up. The day that happened would be the day Lanny won the lottery, got a pet dog and got a date all in the same day. So basically there was a very slim chance of it ever happening.
"But why won't he hang out with us?" Aya asked, puzzled by the lonely boy.
"Because if he hangs out with a bunch of girls all day, it's going to make him look gay!" Naiden pointed out.
""Naiden we're being serious here." Nesira growled impatiently.
"And so am I." Naiden remarked.
Lanny shook her head, but smiled inwardly, staring at her foolhardy friend. Naiden would never change, at least she hoped not.
"Lanny, stop staring at me. It's disturbing!" Naiden interrupted.
Yep, Naiden would never change.
Rapps was already on the way to the high school on his motorbike, his beloved black Harley. He was like a cross between a featherless bird and a human (thanks for the info macky). He had a beak-like mouth and talons in place of feet and arms. He wore a white cloak over his top half and a pair of greyish military trousers.
He smirked at the thought of tearing the teenagers, limb from limb. He was glad he had been assigned this task, but what he would love more was the face of Karunati's face if he decided to tear his daughter apart too. But he knew he would regret it, so he decided against it. You can't always have what you want.
The four girls had met at the wired fence as planned. Shenlong wasn't there because he obviously didn't go to their school. Lanny and Aya were a little late by the looks of Naiden's face.
"You always get on time to lesson, but never on a personal meeting." Naiden pretended to be ashamed.
"But anyway, we're all here now. What are we actually here for to discuss?" Nesira asked out of pure curiosity.
Lanny didn't answer though. She felt unsure and uncertain all of a sudden. Something wasn't quite right. If she was in beast form right now then her fur would all be on end.
"Earth to Lanny...I'm very sorry but it's time to leave the fairy land and join us in the real world." Naiden said in a very annoying voice like a little kid.
Lanny just shook her head. Naiden just growled and decided to poke her until she came back top her senses. Lanny didn't even realise.
"Guys, Lanny's really freakin' me out here." Naiden said, giving Lanny odd looks.
Nesira noticed that something was wrong too. She growled softly in the back of her throat, her wolf genes coming through naturally. She smelt a change in the air, but not a pleasant one.
"Something's not right." Lanny commented, gazing around the school field.
"I can smell something nasty!" Nesira spat with venom.
"I told you to take a shower." Naiden remarked sarcastically.
Nesira just hissed at her which made Naiden smirk. Naiden was completely unaware of why the two were acting so strange.
"Naiden, don't you sense it?" Aya asked, though quietly.
"Sense what?"
But the answer came in a deranged, human form; crashing down from the top of the school building, the fall not affecting him.
"Ah, I see now."
Lanny recognised the figure as Rapps. She knew why he was here. Her father had probably sent him to take her, and most probably tear the pupils apart. Rapps was grinning wickedly, the one thing he did best.
"Let's skip the introductions and just PARTY!" Rapps roared in his hoarse voice as he tore the white his white cloak, revealing his disfigured body.
He morphed immediately, making many students flee back into the school building and watch from the windows. He changed to gryphon-like creature. This head, wings and torso were that of an eagle and his legs and tail were from a lion.
The four girls lined up, in their stances before they morphed too. Nickial watched from behind a tree, wandering what was going on and not curious enough to go ahead and ask. Naiden decided to step out though, she had tried so many times to transform and found it impossible. Maybe she and Lanny had imagined that she nearly did after Mika. But then what of Nesira?
"You're a little late, Rapps." Lanny spoke up, her word puzzling her friends.
Instead of saying something back, he crowed an eerie half roar mixed with the screech of an eagle. The girls flinched at the cry and transformed. Lanny changed to half-lynx, Aya morphed to half-snow leopard and along with Nesira in her wolf form. Nesira had thick, black, glossy fur which shone in the harsh sunlight. Her tail was thick and bushy, but kept very still, as if waiting.
$ A chorus of roars signalled the start of the battle, before pouncing on Rapps one by one, easily being pushed back.
"Do not underestimate him." Lanny half roared; her claws extended.
Nesira howled before jumping onto the back of the gryphon, sinking her jaws into the tight flesh around his shoulder. He flew into the air and flew in circled until Nesira could no longer hold on. She roared as she fell, landing in a thorn bush.
Lanny hissed in unison with Aya. 'How dare he hurt my friend! How dare he!' Lanny screeched in her head as she sped towards the fiend. She leap-frogged over him and tripped him up. He grabb ed Lannys' leg that she had used to trip him up, sinking his claws deep into her soft flesh and fur. Aya sank her fangs into Rapps leg, making him release Lanny slightly in order to face his other attacker. He only smirked as his grip re-tightened on Lanny's leg. He stood up, still holding Lanny's leg much to her grief, and swung her round, letting her knock into Aya, both flying into the wired fence.
He burst out in insane laughter. It was too easy. Damn Karunati's assignment, he was going to kill them all! He was just having too much fun to just let one slip away from the verge of death, even if it was Karunati's daughter.
His trails of thoughts were interrupted as cold, sharp fangs sunk back into his already wounded shoulder. But Lanny and Aya were still trying to entangle themselves from each other. It was that damned wolf! He swung around, but Nesira held on tighter this time. He pulled her off by the scruff of her neck and glared darkly into her eyes as she did to him.
"Behave dog!" He yelled as he threw her into the wall of the school building.
He watched her, but Nesira was definitely out this round. He turned to face Lanny and Aya back at the fence, but they weren't there. He scratched his head as he heard a whoosh from above. He received to blows from flying kicks in the back of his head. He turned to face a grinning lynx and snarling, snow-leopard.
"Leave now! This is your only chance." Aya bellowed.
This only made him laugh. "Infidels, you shall recieve no mercy!"
He lunged at them, grabbing them both by the neck. They hadn't suspected him to be so quick. Rapps had decided that he would deliver Lanny dead instead of alive. She didn't deserve to live. He threw Aya into a nearby tree, and spread his wings, ready to take off.
Nickial sprung from his hiding place, his eyes changing pure white. He recognised Rapps somehow for something dark, but was unsure of what it was. But if it was something dark he sensed then he wasn't going to risk the fiend running away. But as she approached where Rapps stood, he was already in the air, over the fence. His eyes returned to their original form. That lynx was definitely in for it.#
Rapps was over the fence, his wings folded as he took to running. He found himself in a back alley, and he stopped to explore his surrounding. There were a few trashcans, a box with a human in it. That human was female. She had long, blonde hair which was in thousands of braids which ere tied together with black and red hair ties. She wore a plain, red, strapless top under a black jacket with the word 'Suise' labelled on the back. She wore a black skirt over a pair of black trousers and her brown eyes bore into his.
He carried on past her, ignoring him, Lanny over his shoulder after he had applied a quick blow to the back of her neck making her fall unconscious as she returned to her original form. He turned to face the girl when she grabbed his arm, still glaring deeply into his eyes. He was tired, and most probably collapse in this alleyway if he didn't leave now.
"I don't have time for you. I suggest that you release me." He growled.
Instead of speaking, she brought his arm to his back making him release a small roar of pain before she finally heard the sickening crack. She quickly kneed him in the groin, making him fall to his knees and drop Lanny. The girl dragged Lanny from the beast, out of the alleyway and into the mains streets of the local town. She carried on till she came across a splintered door, before going inside with the unconscious girl, shutting the door behind her.
